Comment:
Xiaomi Hu is by far the best upper-level stats teacher at WSU. Tests are ridiculous and nothing at all like the homework or in-class examples. Make sure to write down everything said in class. Do not take his class if getting a perfect 4.0 is a big deal for you. His grading is based on percentage of other students, so only a few students get an A.

Comment:
The tests were very tough, many of my classmates felt they deviated too far from the material covered in class. The lectures were near useless to learning the material. I ended up using the book and online resources to get by. Homework (due every week) is assigned from the textbook, which makes purchasing a necessity. Graders were incorrect too.

Comment:
Professor Hu was one of the worst teachers that I have ever had. His test were extremely difficult and written in a way that was confusing at best. His lectures did not help with learning the material and the only way to pass is to read the book and learn the material yourself.

Great professor. Write down every single note he writes on the board. It can make the difference from a B to an A.

Fast writer, would not be a problem if you could either read what he writes or understand what he says. Rather think accent. Has a problem understanding what you are having trouble with. Tricky grading system.

I have never been so glad to pass with a "C". I know it is a tough subject, but he made it tougher. He is not helpful at all. I had a request that most professor would understand, but he just flat say no, its your prob. i dont care.

His test are the hardest test you will ever encounter. He does tell you what will be on them but the problems it seems are for grad students or maybe people in the doctorate program. UNBELIEVABLY HARD!!!!!! My advice to you is to sit front and center

Comment:
He is very, very difficult and he never says what is going to be on each test. He makes the tests as difficult as possible and changes the curve on each test so that ONLY 5-6 students get As. He doesn't care about you or your grade at all. Don't take him.

He is a nice man, but I couldn't write fast enough to keep up with him, and all the instruction was on the board. Not enough verbal explanation for me.

Knows topic well, lecture always on target and useful. If you have Dr. Hu learn to write fast he fills the chalkboard 5-6 times per lecture. HW easy, tests medium-hard. Recommended.
